Why didn't Iceland call up Eidur Gudjohnnson. Is he injured or does he just not want to waste his time in a meaningless friendly.

Iceland 5 - 0 Mexico






Honestly, Mexico will win 2-0.

 

[SB9Dragon]

I think since Mexico will pretty much have home advantage in the heart (area) of Latin USA then they should have the extra incentive to win this match, I think it will finish 3-1

 

[Torsten Frings]

If Eidur played, Iceland would've won. But..........
Mexico 1-0.

 

[Lennon]

Mexico 3 Iceland 0

Why did they pick Iceland as an opponent??

 

[Fernandez]

wheres gudjohnsen and hreidarsson?

You're an asshole and nobody likes you.


Back to topic: I say Mexico 4-2, maybe 4-0, but I'm not too sure about the Icelandic players.

 

[Paul]

dont try my patience, junior.

 

[Hugo-45-Viana]

Please, keep it on topic, Paul.

Anyway, it might actually prove to be tough for Mexico, because Iceland might go for an 11 man defence, due to Mexico's man-to-man superiority.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we lost this one. I believe that the players listed above should not have been called up. Seriously, Suarez and "El Chato" have no reason to be on there. Suarez is old and won't be around in a couple of years IMO. "El Chato" flat out sucks ass when it comes to playing for the national team. Lavolpe is obsessed with him or something. I like the strikers that were called up though. I think that Luna has been playing very well for some time now; the same can be said about Mora who is having a good year with Veracruz. We'll see though. I'm not too optimistic.
